I am a stay at home mom of 2 children, a 8 yr old girl and a 3.5 yr old boy. I am currently attending college online. I am new to swap-bot but I am a responsible person and won't flake.

-I like to read, sew, cook, scrapbook, do crafts with my kids, play board/card games, soduku, puzzles, try new foods and hang out with friends and family.

Likes:

-I like any chocolates, most candies, and snack foods.

-Anything with cute ducks and owls on it.

-Steampunk items, such as jewelry.

-Socks (colorful, toe, fuzzy socks [shoe size US 9, UK 7, EUR 39-40]).

-Books (see below for details).

-Any craft supplies and fabric/ribbons for sewing.

-Anything with vanilla scent.

-I absolutely love sand paintings.

-If you send me anything Huckleberry you would be my new favorite person.

Dislikes:

-I don't like coffee or anything with coffee in it.

-Black licorice, hard candies (jawbreakers, etc), chalky candies (Smarties, etc).

-Not a big fan of candles, but small ones with nice scents might be ok.
